Also, the HHS Secretary sold cocaine in college and was a heroin addict for 14 years so it is RICH whenever they go after people for old drug offenses.

I have no idea if it's true, but there are a ton of rumors that Nancy Mace is considering pulling her support for the Epstein discharge petition in exchange for some political concession she's getting from Trump and Johnson. Hope it's not true, but that's what I'm hearing.

Hair-raising story by @attackerman.bsky.social with new documents showing that a detained journalist is being held by ICE for his Instagram likes.

McGovern: He would rather appeal to the highest court in the land to starve people than simply provide them with the food assistance that he is legally obligated to do. That is the Republican policy position. We will give you your food if you let us take away your health care.

The best way to show that MAGA is not part of some dark authoritarian movement is to remove professors who suggest that it is

Cue the Bishops withholding communion from Catholic SCOTUS justices who betray Matthew 25:35-40.

Gov. Pritzker: “Donald Trump doesn't know anything about Chicago…The man is demented. He really has no idea what he's doing.”

Breaking WSJ: Fannie Mae watchdogs who were removed from their jobs had been probing if Trump appointee Bill Pulte had improperly obtained mortgage records of key Democratic officials, including New York Attorney General Letitia James, according to people familiar with the matter.

Yesterday, when Bovino announced ICE would be returning to Little Village today, some of us donated and fundraised to buy out street vendors in the neighborhood. This morning, volunteers hit the streets at 6:30 am, looking for vendors to buy out. Tamales make an excellent breakfast.

when you wear a size 9.5 shoe but the 8.5 was on sale

Wow, a Long Island jury awarded $112 Million to 674 immigrants who were unlawfully held by county police so they could be handed over to ICE

this needs to known far and wide

So moved and enraged by the replies to this and was thinking... maybe we should collect them and send them to Chuck Schumer and the rest of the Senate cowards. Form here, won't collect emails unless you provide them. forms.gle/YnhsgtKTWD9A...

It’s not enough to simply thank our veterans for their service. Millions of them rely on SNAP and the ACA. Many struggle with PTSD and worry about access to mental health services. Today, on Veterans Day, let’s renew our commitment to keep fighting for those who fought for us.

😳

a new genre of photo in the last year is federal agents working for ICE pointing guns directly at photographers

It’s insane to treat the filibuster as the most sacrosanct. Article 1 power of the purse, oversight, and war? Nah. Emoluments clauses? Bribery prohibition? Meh. Criminal law? 14A? Doesn’t count. But maybe the Senate changes a rule it has multiple times before? Gasp! Not that. Anything but that.

This seems like the most straightforward and also basically accurate message.

no money for politicians

OSCAR ISAAC, on whether he'd return to "Star Wars": ".. Yeah. I mean, I’d be open to it, although right now I’m not so open to working with Disney. But if they can kinda figure it out and, you know, not succumb to fascism, that would be great." @variety.com $DIS variety.com/2025/film/ne...

“Tell your children who the cowards were.” - Ta-Nehisi Coates

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

It’s also an advertisement, suggesting that it’s safe to break the law for DJT.

Just thinking again how Democrats asked people to accept short-term suffering in order to give space to prevent long-term, worse suffering and then said, "Thanks for suffering in the short-term. You'll get to suffer long-term too so that our Thanksgiving plans don't get disrupted."

The contrast could hardly be sharper. My friends and neighbors, armed only with whistles and voices, spend their weekend fighting off heavily-armed paramilitary goons. Meanwhile, these jagoffs capitulate, but not before securing another $1 billion for their own security.

the real move if you want to be the presidential nominee in 2028 is to come out and say who did the vote swapping, air the dirty laundry, and say “our voters deserve better” imo. position yourself as the champion of the dem base against the crooked leadership they hate

Brazilian coup-plotters: charged 🇧🇷 American coup-plotters: pardoned 🇺🇸

On Tuesday, Americans sent Democrats a resounding message. “Fight for us” “Fight for working class Americans” “Fight against Trump’s corruption, criminality and cruelty” 5 days later, Democrat Senators sent Americans a resounding message. “Nah”

This coward needs to be gone and every single one who agrees with him

The only silver lining to last night’s cave.

Schumer said the Dems will "keep fighting". Keep fighting their own voters? Keep fighting off effectiveness? Keep fighting being held accountable for anything? As far as I can tell the Democratic leadership is good at one thing only now, which is sending fundraising messages to my phone.

Congrats to the eight Democrats who gave this regime a huge win over the weekend. Here’s your reward. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...

It is very weird seeing my friends and family slowly start to realize we're not overreacting.

Resign.

Great job, @schumer.senate.gov. You've changed the story from "GOP hurting millions of Americans to please unpopular, failing, delusional despot who's destroying his party" to "Dems are too weak and divided in the face of Trump's strength to take a stand and protect Americans"

Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

THAT IS ALREADY A LAW. TRUMP IS THE PRESIDENT WHO SIGNED THAT LAW. YOU ARE A FUCKING NEWS REPORTER

Just called Gillibrand & Schumer in the taxi on the way from the airport. Took 2 minutes.

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise. Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families. Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

If I were @schumer.senate.gov, I would not agree to help Republicans fund this regime on the "promise" of an ACA vote at a later date. It didn't work the last time when they promised to fund DC. It won't work this time either. The House won't touch it.

lol she got his ass and he knows it

Someone should go there and show them the clips of Trump's Great Gatsby party. I bet they'd be so happy to know he's having fun.

Tech guys six months ago: haha yes we’re cutting all this WASTEFUL spending by eliminating medical research and USAID Tech guys now: yes I think taxpayers will be excited to bailout my non consensual pornography machine

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine. We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/08/w...
